Overview
Battle stations! Report for duty aboard the iconic HMS Belfast, one of only three vessels not to be scrapped from the entire D-Day fleet that participated in Operation Overlord. Gain an insight into what life was like on-board this famous warship during World War II, and whose guns are so powerful that they managed to crack the ship's toilets on D-Day. Imagine yourself being in the bowels of the ship as she fired the first shots of D-Day, or sleeping in one of the tightly-packed hammocks during convoy duties in icy Arctic waters. THE QUARTER DECK The Quarter Deck is where you'll take your first step on board HMS Belfast. Here you are introduced to the three key time periods of the ship’s active service; The Second World War (1939 - 1945), End of Empire (1945 - 1949) and Cold War (1950 - 1966). Meet some of HMS Belfast’s leading figures including the last operational Captain Morgan-Giles.
